Submitted by: Coverlock
Specimen type: Photograph
Observation notes: Found on back porch early morning. Temp about 70F. Would not fly away. Moved very slightly. Wings fluttered a bit, but I didn't see it fly. Thought it might have been injured. I left for work, and it was gone upon my return. But next evening I noticed remnants of its wings scattered on back porch. It has been very hot here (mid 90s F during day). Small birds fly under porch canopy looking for insects, so I figure some bird might have got her, or just died.
